It's the Raw brand that's coming. I always thought that was the weaker one. Bar Triple H. People like Ric Flair should just retire. What night is the 26th?

Shawn Michaels
Randy Orton
Chris Benoit
Chris Jeicho
Kane
etc.

Also Trish and Stacey are on Raw!:cool: :)

I'd love if Austin made the trip but I doubt he will to be honest.

Raw is the far superior brand imo. I probably wouldn't even bother going to this event if it was the Smackdown roster.

Smackdown! has the better wrestlers, RAW has the better characters.

I'll probably got to this, although getting home will be hard. €40 should be enough to get decent seats.

With Benoit now on Raw and Goldberg likely to move in the other direction that's not as much the case as before.
I fear for Benoit on Raw though, he's getting his push and may be given the title at or after WMXX but it's already evident that he's lost on Raw.... a couple of weeks ago he was in the ring with Austin, Hunter and Michaels and they were all cutting promos. Benoit was seriously shown up for his lack of mic skills. In the ring he's as good as anyone.... that might have been enough for him on Smackdown but it won't be on Raw. They should have kept him where he was imo.

Agree with Colm there. I am very disappointed that Benoit has been moved to Raw. But then, Hunter requested it as the person he wnts to face at WM XX so it must be.

That being said, I think his MIC skills are on the up. So what if he was lost with HBK, HHH and Austin, those 3 are the best in the biz at promos anyway. Chris can only learn from that.

Just hope now we can get tickets. One of the lads is going queueing for us in the morning. frnt and centre I hope.

Thats true and hopefully he will improve his mic skills but to be honest I don't think he can. His ability is in the ring and it is top notch but, as I said, that usually doesn't seem to be enough on Raw. Hopefully, they'll keep him on Raw until may 27th and then move him back to Smackdown!;)

Yeah, he better get them!!
If we get ringside (or close) seats it will be worth the 60 quid.
Hopefully they'll bring all the big superstars, we don't want to be left watching the Dudleys, Mark Henry, Spike, Test etc!
If they brought a few out of HHH, Michaels, Orton, Jericho, Flair, Kane or Benoit I'd be happy. I also hope that at least one of Austin or Bischoff is there. And of course Trish!

Mark Henry won't be there, he's gone for a good seven months with a shoulder injury.

I'm told that The Dudleyz are quite good live, I think most of us would get cat up in the "Waaaaassssssssuuupppppppp" or "Get the tables" bits when actually there.

If I do go though, what I'm most looking forward to is Shawn Michaels doing a kip up.

my son it is a dangerous road you are travelling on here.be careful you are not setting youself up as the supreme being .

many a man has done this before and ended up having the same fate as michael hutchins.if we think we are above the ordinary
peramotors of good behaviour our self control/denial can become suspect and lead you into temptations of the flesh.

i would caution you against such rash statements.(or do you look a bit like him)????
